No policy on GAA club names

GAA president Liam O’Neill has said the body has no policy on the naming of new clubs.

He was speaking in the wake of renewed criticism from unionist quarters in the North about clubs named after republicans.

Traditional Unionist Voice leader Jim Allister slammed GAA pundit Joe Brolly after he defended the title of the Kevin Lynch’s Hurling Club in Dungiven, Co Derry — named after the 1981 INLA hunger striker.
